Application filed April 5, 1898. Serial N o. 425,354.

Be it known that I, ARTHUR E. HAUCK, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of New York, county of Kings, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Oil-Burners, .of which the following is a specication.

The object of this invention is to provide a burner vand heater of this class which may be used vwherever a powerful heating or lighting flame is desired. This obgect is :ioconiplished by my invention, certain enibodiments of vwhich are hereinafter more particularly described.

For more particular description of my invention reference is to be had to the ac coinpanying drawings, forming a part hereof, in which i Figure 1 is'a plan view of my improved burner and connections. Fig. 2 is a sec'- tional view taken on the line 2 2 of Fig. l, looking intlie direction of the arrows. F ig. 3 is a sectional yiew taken on the line 3 3 of Figi 2, looking iii the direction oi' the arrows Figs. 4 and 5 are sectional views taken' on the vlines 4 4 and 5 5 of Fig. l, respectively, looking' in the direction ot the arrows, thfc pipes being shown at a diierent anglev troni that shown in Fig. l. Fig. 6 is a side elevation ot' a modification. Fig. 7- is an enlarged detailed view ofl the joint. Figs.

Fig. 12 shows a stand for holding iny iniproved heater, partsy being' broken away. Fig. 13 is a `Vertical section through the rod 49 and nut 52 of Fig.y -1-0.

Throughout the various viewsof the drawl ings, similar reference characters designate similar parts. f. f

AMy iinprovedheater 1, is composed oi a burner 2,y air and oil `pipes designated gener- The burner 2 is composed of a funnel 5 which is preferably, inlthe form of a trun cated cone, except for a short distance from the large end which-is cylindrical, open at both ends and provided'with 4`perforations 6 near the larger `vend of the conical part. The ext-reine larger-end of this funnel 5 is prefishi'ting or other causes,

erably made cylindrical in form as 4shown l at 7 so that it can be mounted on the base `relate 8 of the burner 2 by means of an iiiteg'ral -collar 9 andscrews l0. The funnel perforated and provided with an exterior Y collar l1, through which the its interior surface this base plate- 8 is pro vided with a number of integral and projecting pins 12 each of which has itsl axis parallel or substantially parallel to the axis of the burner 2, these pins being preferably placed in a ring which is substantially concentric with the center of the disk 8. A number ofair Vents 82L are also made in the base 8 as shown in Fig. 3. This base 8 is also provided with an integral circular baiile 18, which extends for about 90 and it eX- tends where the pins 12 are omitted and this baille 13 is also preferably concentric 'with the axis of the burner 2. This baie 13 has a perforation 14 opposite thel perforation 15, in the cap 16, through which the oil is forced, passing through is one of' the'pipes indicated the numeral 3. The second pipe i8 rests against the pipe 17 and is flattened at its inner end to torni a. nozzle so that air is blown through the to the direction ot' iiow of oil through the opening 1.5 so that this blast of air will s the oil when the burner is in use. The unction of the hole 14 is to provide a vent through which a small amount ot' oil and generically by vapor will pass and form a pilot'light which will prevent the burner from becoming eX- tinguished while in use, owing, to a sudden and 'which will at the saine time cause-a more complete coinbustioii. The pins 12 also assist in pei'- foiming these functions as they will soon' be heated to a cherry red when the burner is used and they will retain their heat Sulliciently long to ieignite the combustible elements, should they become entirely eXtin-' guished while the burner is in use. `These pins l2 also perform the functions of giving.r the heat more uniform intensity.

The pipes 17 and 18 are secured in place by any suitable means such as .screws 19.

The pipes 17 and 18 are twice bent so as to form a compound curve and are then eX- tended straight and parallel to eachother, the pipe 17 running to an elbow oil or fuel and A air pipespass, as will appear below and on the pipe 17 which,

pipe 18 at right anglesy ray 20 wliiohj l lla connects with cock valve 2i which. in turn is connected. with a pipe 22 through which oil or other fuel is supplied trom any suitable source, not shown. 'fi'he pipe i8 is also 5 connected with a similar elbow 23, which is connected to a cocir 24 identical in all respects with the cock 2l, and this Coeli 24 is connected with anair .pipe 25 which at two points is curved toward the pipe 22 as shown at 26 and 27 in Fig. l and .is cross connected for bracing purposes only with the ipe 22 by means ot crossings 28 and29.

T e elbows 23 and 20 are preferably formed of one integrai piece of metal and they are suitably plugged so that no fuel can low from one to the other, and they are also provided with a worm gear 30 either fixed thereon or integral therewith. On each side of the worm gear 30 are hooks 31 which are united at the outer end by plates 32 suitably recessed at to receive ithe shaft 34 at which is suitably journaled therein. and provided with hand wheel so "that by turning this hand wheel which is 25 fixed to said shaft 34, the worin 35 may be turned and thereby turn the worm gear B0. A suitable bearing 37 is mounted on the crossing 29 so that the shaft 34 is suitably journaled therein.

30 r`The cocks 21 and 24 are of the conventional kind so that a detailed description is unnecessary. -It is sutlicient to say that their openings are so arranged that when the burner 2 is turned around so as to be close to the pipes 22 and 25 and on either side as desired, the supply ci' air and oil is shut ofi s and the burner then becomes inoperative.

In the moditication shown in Figs. 6 to 9 inclusive the worm gear 30 and the worm 35 and their attendant parts are omitted entirely and in lieu thereof are placed two toothed disks 38 and 39 respectively, the disk 38 being fined to the outside casing of the cock 2l and the dish 39 being fixed to 45 the elbow 20. These disks are separated about an eighth of an inch and sandwiched in between them is a dish 40 having` an elongated opening 4l with a spring 42 having one end fixed therein and the other end t'reed and bearing against the elbow 20. This dish is also provided with a laterally extending pin 43 and diametrically opposite this is a screw threaded shank 4l on which is a thumb nut 45 and a washer 46. The pin 421 is adapted to tit between the teeth ot' the disks B8 and 39 so that by turning the thumb nut l5 'the spring 42 will cause the pin 49 to bc disenf gaged from said teeth and then the burner 2 may be turned to any desired angle to the plane of the pipes`25 and 22. This form oi "apparatus, just above described, is not capable of the same exact adjustment as the embodiment of my invention, shown in l to 5 inclusive, but is somewhat simpler e5 and is capable oit suilieient adjustment for i canoe/s'.

mostpurposes. In the modification shown in Figs. 10 and 11, the mechanism forshifting the burner 2 with regard to the pipes 25 and 22 is changed somewhat from that shown in Figs. l to 5 inclusive. 7g

The structure `shown in Figs. 10 and 1l has two parallel arms 47 fixed to the elbows 20 and 23, in lieu of the worm gear 30, and these arms 47 are connected by a spindle 48 journaled thereinv and this spindle 48 has a 75 central perforation running at right angles to its axis through which passes a. rod 49 which turns `freely therein and'is held in posi* tion by means of nuts 50. The other end of vthe rod 49 is screw threaded and at its eX- so treme end is provided with a crank 5l. The screw threaded portion runs through a nut 52 that turns freely in the crossing 29 so that by turning the crank 5l, the burner 2 may be shifted with regard to the pipes 22 85 and 25. Y

In Fig. 12 is shown a" suitable stand which preterablyconsists of a base 53, of any suitable form and provided with a rod.55 held by a set screw 54 and at the top of the rod .,55 is a clamp 56 with-two jaws which are Aclamped against the benttrod 57 which hasv one portion'bent at right angles to the other and the extreme endof the rod 57 supports. a plate 58 to which it may be clamped by a 95 bolt or screw 60 or yother suitable means. The rod 57 and its connections form a universal joint. The ends 0fthe plate 58 are each provided with clamps '59, preferably made substantially as shown in Fig. 12, so that when the support is iii use, the pipe 22 is first placed so as to have a bearing in one end' of the clamps 59 a'nd the pipe 25 has its curvedl portions 26 and 27 resting on the other end of the clamps 59. The support is then moved to the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. l .in which position the pipes 25 and 22 are firmly held and then by adjusting the clamp 56, or the set screw' 54 or' the screw between the rod 57 and plate 58, one or more of them, the burner maybe thrown into any desired position by simply turning the hand wheel 36 or'the crank 51 or the nut 45, according` to which form oi apparatus is used. When in use the flame issues from the j funnel with a substantially uniforn'i intensity, the perforation 14 in the battle 13 tending to promote lcombustion and keep the llame from extinction as described above.
